Sand.ers, Editor and Prop 'THUASDAY, JULY 5 1.900 DOMINION DAY, Sunda y last marked tbe thirty-fourth ..ianiaiyers'ary of the birth .of the Domin- 'Ion of .0:mad:I. There are men now -;g111*. Middle-aged Who can remember thefears felt and at times expressed by the best friend S of our county at , the venttli•e withOut, ,precedeut then Inatigirrated. A. prominent Liberal ,./elember of the first parliament is re - /ported to have prophesied, that the siew confederation, would never stand. .."Lower Canada is the same as ever And Neva Scotia is secession, by a large majority. We shall be back to crown .o.lonies, or over there (pointing to the U. S.) before five years." The sod has -.covered that member for years, but he :lived long enough to feel that he had 'been a false prophet of evil and his ‘blouds of coiting ruin were but the mists from which fell only the life-giv- ing showers and gentle dew. To -day there are dangers ahead as there must ever be, but the pilot of public opinion Is skilful and true enough to guide the iship propelled as She is by the power - rail engines of .national life and healthy :growth. With the flag of Britain nail- ed to the mast the new dominion of thirty-four years ago has now a clear; marked course among the sturdiest nations of earth. Then four provinces, 4"..he two Canadas kept apart for nearly., a century by the jealousies and. hatreds of the two distinct, races, further en- tangled. by new promised, problems and accepting Confederation as a tem- Dering shelter or breathing space,were -tied by an act of parliament with the 'imaritime provinces more or less dis- trustful of each other, The leading statesmen were strangers and. the lo_ parliaments were wrestling with minor discords and the questions of lederal and provincial taxation were .neWly and hi some, cases badly adjust- ed. But Providence had given us wise and patriotic statesmen and the names Of the two Macdonalds, Tupper, Brown, .McDougall, Cartier and Mowat are names that will never fade from this early page of our history. Soon the. .genius of Sir Sir John Macdonald en- larged the national borders and with Manitoba and British Columbia and Prince -Edward Island the new natton- ality becathe one of the largest terri- tories on the earth. The greater diffi- laiiities are, now happily solved, but wise statesmanship is more needed. than -ever to 'bring nationally the best re - :sults. Meantime let us notice a few ngrires showing wonderful growth: Foreign trade has increased in -Value from $120,000,000 to $350,000;000,. or :nearly three hundred per cent. The 'increase of interprovincial trade is .even greater. The revenue has grown ftom $13,000,000 to over $50,000,000. In 1868 there were 2269 miles of rail- zoad and in 1000 over 17000 miles. . 'Then the depositors in the P. O. Sav- ings bank amounted to 2.102 with -1;250,000, now they number $150,000 With more than $85,000,000 so saved. ' The letters and newspapers then num- bered about 18,000,000 of each and now there. pass through the mails 105,000,- ,000 of newspapers and 150,000,000 of aetters. Other features equally won- derful could be given, sufficient to war- rant the grandest dream for the future of Canada, to which let us add the -prayer that God will save the Queen . and ever bless our Empire and Domin- ion,. NOTES AND COMMENTS. Hugh John .A.lacDonalet's proposed prohibition law is met by a curious and unexpected objection. It appears that. the Hudson Bay Company has a royal charter under which it can sell liquor. The contention is made that the Local Legislature cannot override the charter, and that if it should prohibit, the charter will re- main and the company will have a monopoly. This is a phrase of the situation altogether looked. for. The Detroit Free Press says:—"Ship- merits of oil from the Pennsylvania, field to Canada, via Buffalo, Black Rock and Suspension Bridges, have been resumed, after a suspension of two years. In October 1898,the Grand, 'Trunk Railway Company, which car- ried the bulk of Canada bound °liftman this gateway, raised its rates on pe- trolum and its products at the instiga- tion of the Standard Oil Company, it is said. The Standard owns immense wells at Petrolea„ Ont., which is not far from Port Huron, and through its influence the railway advanced the rate Sons to shut out independent pro- ducers of Oil City, Titusville, Warren 'City and other points in Pennsylvania. The Western New 'York &Pennsylvan- Aa, felt the loss of this oil tonnage, and :the fight against the Standard's action was -waged so fiercely and successfully 'that public sentiment forced the trust and railway to give in. Accordingly a tariff on petroleum and its products in carloads went into effect on the •.Grand Trunk last week, which practi- cally reduced the rate from Boffalo to Hamilton, TOT'011t(), iNiontrciti, Quebec and other poi n ts 8:3 per cen , and in some instances 40. This will give the independent all shippers from America a chance to compete with the Stand- C1)11.00,11.",:0)1.f6tH. At the adjourned meeting: of the North Perth Liberal Association, heal at Milverton Thursday Mr. G Gaet7 the Reeve of &Hee, was the unani- mous choice of the convention to eon - test the riding at the next election for the Do ninion House of Commons Sodom Borrot;„. DE.A.a Sifai-s-In.,yonv last 'week's is - see 1 hear there is an article giving an explanation, Of the 'little trouble in Sodom. As the writer's name is not addecl to it We infer that the Nvriter is ashamecl of the article produced, as it is incorrect and wilfully so, and mis- leading. The article states that the cattle were in a field And the injury done was very slight. Now, the: cat- tle were.not in a field, but on the nil b - Us 'road and were doing no damage to any person. The charge Of ilhtsing the cattle extended over many days with the threat that if they were not kept off the road he (Mr. Stacey) would break the backs of every one of them. As we had lost a nurnber of sheep by broken backs we thotight there was danger, hence the .course persued. The writer oflast week's issue thinks that the oitence Was small and the punishment great, but had it not been for the unlawful Interference of cer- tain parties Mr: Stacey weidd not noW be in limbo. Those parties, trying to prevent the ends of pastice by tamper- ing With our witnesses, are coninliting- a very serious offence in the eyes of the law at any stage of the proceedings of the trial The -friends of Mr. Stacey were told that if he -would promise to let the cattle alone the case would be taken out of contt and dropped; but that promise was not given. It ap- pears to me that our family is the sub- ject of some scheming lot, designed rather for the benefit of an outsider than for a Sodomite. A couple of years ago our crops were greatlY damaged by a neighbor's horses, and this year a neighbor's colt, that was allowed to be on the road, got into our field among our sheep and the result was five dead lambs; still we made no com- plaint until this cow beating com- menced which lasted for many days. We saw that something must be done to protect OM' property, hence the law suit. Mr. Stacey going to jail was a part of the scheme to put the expenses as they thought on us. C. PROUTY. MISLEADING AND FALSE. .—A certain party in thistneighborhood is daily cir- culating falsehoods for the purpose of misleading the public and damaging my reputation. As a citizen; in justice to myself, I claim a'little space in your valuable paper to contradict these re- ports and place the case in the true light before the readers of the ADVO- CATE. For years the man, Stacey, has been abusing animals of all kinds on the highways; he has crippled and lamed animals belonging to different parties, but we being in closer proxim- ity to him haye been the greater suf- ferers and. all for no other purpose than to show his domineering and tyranical disposition, as we have at all times used him kindly and have helped him when he was in dire need. Our cows have been on the road for the follow- ing reasons: The falm on which he resides is Without a fence at the back —not the fault of the Owner, as his part is already up—our place is in the same condition, we have our part al- ready up, but the fault lies with the owners of the adjoining farms and in consequence the four lots are in a sense all in one, and rather than our cattle should go around and get into the farm on which he resides we keep thein on the road and this he knows. Now, as the unfortunate result of the late trou- ble, we warned him repeatedly to stop abusing and driving the cows. On May 21th I went to his house, shortly after he had been after them and ask- ed him what harm they were doing him. The answer was that he would kick me Out, I told him he would get a magistrate's letter. He told me that cows were not allowed to run on the road and if he t'e•ot forty letters he wouldbreak the backs of every cow we had if We did not keep thern.off the road. 1 went to a magistrate and got a letter written; but this ,seemed to make him more spiteful than ever. He would come forty or flfty rods to meet the cattle and attack themalong our own fence. We saw plainly that he was being encouraged by a second. party and we also hada good idea what the motive was and that nothing but strong measures would. be of .any use, consequently I went to Mr. Lewis, of Crediton, and entered a coMplaint and desired, him to stop it if possible.. The day before the trial Mr. Prouty, Sr:, Went to the residence of one of his relatiyeS and stated that if Stacey would promise to cease his unlawful conduct the matter Would be dropped before any more expense, Was incurred. This offer was ignored: At the com- mencement of the trial ..we told , the court in his 'presence that all we want- ed was for him to leave the pews alone: This offer was 'unanswered. . We also told ,the magistrate to be as easy with him as the law would allow which was done.. .When the, case had beenillaced in the magistrate's hands .and they saw that .we were determined to have justice one of his relatives gave as an excuse that the cattle :.brought flies around:his 'house, but seventeen, or eighteen head of cattle stand around ,the very door at their own sweet will and he never at, any time was Seen to drive the from it. When they - Saw that. *mild not . Work as .an excuse their next plea, was that they were afraid the cattle might .fight through the fence.

Prt 0 01.1-: THE.WESTERN FAIR London September 6 to 15 1900' The closing- year of the eentrny gives every prospect of developing the Most successful Wester Fair at Lonapp, ulat, has ever been seeu since the institution was first organized in 1807, . Since that time the Directors have been ever 'progressive, and each year the prob- lern has 'beento find:space ,for .the Mul- tifarious exhibits while still leaving ample robin for the crowd.' to wander tbrellgh tile pack -like : ground, or find seating capacity on the .spaei- ouS gra hit stands. : Forte/lately the experience of the past is not forgotten, and this:year the Preparations Were begun at a date auffieiently early to have everything in readiness for the opening. Last year it will be remembereda great many cliangeS were Made, in the loca- tion of the various bifildingS; .! Other than the Main one and large additions wereinade to all. . This year 'i11 viLuess really Nailer additions, together with such added conveniences as the experience :of the past has suggested, and for which the success of the past has left /Maple fin- ancial provision. The reniovals and additions the Agricultural, Horticul- tural; Dairy and- Machinery Buildings have not only greatly' increased the capacity of each, but have had: the effect of .highly adding. to .thenatural beauty of the grounds, so' that while the useful purposes of the Pair are largely increased, the' artistic effect is al the same 011ie greatly enhanced. A. straight driveway nowextends from the main entrance to the miniature lake and an obstructed viewof the whole grounds is obtained immediate- ly upon entranee. Some of the largest manufacturers of Agricultural Implements in the 'United States are inquiring for space, with a yiew to introducing their goods into Canada, while the prospects of good crops throughout Ontario should tend to make the Western Fair of 1900 a. record -breaker in every particular. Apart frOm the usual horse -speeding and exhibition of prize aril/MA.1S in the ring, the Attraction Committee have ;this year eclipsed all previous efforts in the way of providing thrilling and sensational acrobatic teatimes. . The most renowned athletes of the continent have been secured, .and the baloon leaping Will be accomplished by ladies and gentlemen everywhere known in the athletic world for their skill and daring and the graceful ease with which they accomplish the most perilous feats. Several important Additions have been made to the Prize List, copies of which may be had on application per- sonally, or by- letter to Mr..T. A. Nelles, the Secretary, who'will be pleased to give full information to all. On the whole we feel safe inpredict- ing that the Western Fair Of .London will be one that no previousfair has equalled. It may interest our :readers to know that there is no longer any street railway troubles in London, and that there will be no repetition of any discomforts from this cause. A Thousand Tongues. Could not express the rapture of Annie E. Springer of Plailndelphia, Pa., when Dr. Kings New Discovery cured her of a hacking coughthat ;for many years had made life a burden. She says: "After all other remedies and doctors failed, it soon removed the pain in the chest and I can now sleep soundly, something I can scarcely re- member doi ng before.

Baim proprietor of the Opera House restaurant. About 9 o'clock Miss Bain daughter of the proprietor, was ;thine in the house, and hearing some strange noise, went into the hallway to find the cause, when she was confronted by a man who commanded her not to 'make a noise. Miss Bain, instead' of obeying, called loudly for help, when she was seized by one of the men, who. broke a brittle of' carbolic acid over her, burning her arm and breast se- verely. He then held a:cloth saturat- edwith chloroform over, her face. The Men afterwards Made their escape, .and up to the: present :have not been captured. JEALOUSY AND MURDER. Orangeville, July 3.—Maddened by jealously, Ottawa Hunter a young man shot Miss Gertie Nixon yesterday af- ternoon, and then pressing the muzzle of the weapon to his own heart, pulled the trigger and killed himself. The terrible occurrence took place of Idyle- wylde Park, about five o'clock, while numbers of spectators were watching the lacrosse match between the Duffer - ins and Tuscarora, Indians. Suddenly and without any previous warning whatever, the sharp crack of a revolv- er was heard at the south end of the grounds. A second later the report rang out again, and the horrified peo- ple saw a young woman and a man fall to the earth alnaost at the satne time. There was a wild rush for the spot and a scene of great excitement ensued until the prostrate forms were carried from the grounds. Hunter died where he fell, and his lifeless body was taken to the town hall to await th.e coroner's verdict. Miss Nixon was carried to a nearby residence, where she now lies in a precarious condition with a bullet lodged in one of her lungs. She is the only daughter of Mr. Thos. Nixon, of Mono township, and very pretty. As nearly as can be learned it appears to have been a case of unrequitted love. "HUNGER IS THE BEST SAUCE," Yet some people are neyer hungry.

'Ile fire origin - ;tied in a defective switch, and in a very short tit ne the entire plant,which distributes the power received from the Lachine Rapids to the various ,parts of the city, was completely de- stroyed. The loss, which was princi- pally due to the destruction of the plant will be between $25,000 • and $80,000. The the resulted in the night watchman, Richard Crowther, losing his life. Crowther was on the top flat of the place when the fire broke out, and appeared at one of the win- dows. A net was laid by the firemen and he was told to jump, but he was overcome by the smoke and fell back into the building. Wheu he was taken out, a short while afterwards, he was apparently beyond help, and was taken to the hospital, where all ef- forts to reviye him were useless. A Poor Millionaire.

Mr. Robert Jones, sr., passed peace - 2 tally away at his residence in this town on Wednesday evening, haying reached the ripe age of 81 years. He has not enjoyed his usual good health since New Years, though he was not afflicted by any peculiar ailment, only a, gradual giving out of the physical powers. He had little or no suffering. He was a robust and active Man and few would have taken Min to be near- ly so old. Seaforth: Police Magistrate. Beattie had some lively tussles with laW-break- ers last week. On Saturday Jas. Gem - mil. of TuCkersmith, reported. that several fleeces of wo6l had been stolen from his barn. Chief Gillespie started work on the case and soon discovered that the property was stolen by two men named West Perry and Dayid Smith who were collecting scrap iron through the country. He at once stiu•teA to locate the men who had sep- arated. He caught Perry near Hen - sail and Sinith was captured on the other side of Dublin. The men came up for trial before P. M.

Fair, to W. Clucas, of St. Louis, U. S. The chancelof the church was decorated with palms and other flowers and the first half -a -dozen pews were reserved fax invited guests. The softened tones of the organ, at which Miss Linnie Irwin presided during the ceremony, added to the impressiveness of the event. The pastor, Rey. A. Stewart, performed the ceremony. The bride, who entered leaning on the arm of her brother,W.: D. Fair, looked charm- ing in her travelling suit of gray and carrying a shower boquet of White roses: Her cousin, Miss Cavan, of.
